Clarke stared as she thought, once she came up with an ideas she smiled and spoke. "Hold on. There could be a way to bring him back" Clarke said to Nyko.

-"None that I've ever seen" Katherine said, they all stared at her surprised that she was not attacking Nyko already.

Their attention was drifted to scrambling near the stairwell. Finn appeared panting heavily.

-"We have to go. The camp's leaving" He told the three of his clan. Katherine rolled her eyes upon his presence. Nyko stood up abruptly.

-"You!" Nyko tened furiously as he began to walk toward the boy.

-"We have to stop —" Finn began but was interrupted by the angry grounder.

-"Ripa! (Murderer!)" Nyko screamed as he pushed Finn against the wall and began to choke him.

Bellamy aimed his gun at Nyko "Get off!"

-"You slaughtered my people. Elders. Children. Innocents" He said, his blood boiling in anger.

-"Bellamy you are not killing him" Octavia said as she stood between the gun and Nyko.

-"you're killing him —" Clarke yelled in fear.

-"Blood must have blood!" Nyko yelled as Finn choked for air.

Katherine didn't want Nyko to stop, but she knew the commander would want him to pay as tradition implies.

-"Get out of the way!" Bellamy yelled.

-"Bellamy, you're not killing him!" Octavia yelled back. Katherine grew tried, Finn was going to pay, but he was going to suffer for everything.

-"Nyko, stop" Katherine commanded, Nyko obliged and stopped immediately. They all stared back at her as she glanced at Nyko "You're not doing this right now"

Katherine went back to Lincoln body and noticed something was wrong. "Lincoln— He's not breathing" she said, pain in her voice.

-"His heart's stopped. Move!" Clarke said as she began performing CPR on Lincoln. Katherine stared at her in confusion.

-"What are you—" Katherine was cut short as Lincoln gasped for breath. Katherine stared incredulously and a small smile began to form on get lips. She stared back at Clarke.

-"Thank you"

Clarke nodded.

-"He was dead...how did you do that?" Nyko asked astonished. Realization dawned on Clarke.

-"You've tried bringing Reapers back before?And they died like this?" She asked, Nyko nodded.

Clarke stared off into the distance, and a small smile formed on her lips.

-"What is it?" Bellamy asked confused.

-"I know how to stop the attack"

Octavia and Katherine were attending to Lincoln's wounds when Finn and Abby appeared.

-"Oh, thank god" Octavia said in relief upon seeing them arrive. 

-"Where's Clarke?" Katherine asked.

-"Trying to stop a war"

Abby walked over to Lincoln who remained restrained. She began to examine him.

-" Pupils are unresponsive" she said concerned. Octavia and Bellamy looked at each other in alarm, as Katherine stared at the ground. "Tie off his arm. Tight as you can" Abby ordered them, Katherine did as told.
